Default league settings in Fantasy Basketball

Each scoring type has different default settings. When joining a Public Free or Public Prize League, or creating a Private League, you can pick which scoring type to use. The default scoring setting for all league types is Head-to-Head Points. If you create a Private League, you can customize your league settings instead of using the defaults.
